1. System configuration Functional configuration Example of screen display 4. Examples of rewards 5. Hardware configuration Supplement

(1. System configuration)
FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a schematic configuration of a system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, a system 10 according to the present embodiment includes a client device 100 and a server device 200. The server 20 is configured by a single server device 200 or a plurality of server devices 200 cooperating with each other, and the server 20 communicates with the client device 100 via the network and provides services to the client device 100. Both the client device 100 and the server device 200 can be realized by a hardware configuration of an information processing device described later.

In the present embodiment, the client device 100 includes a plurality of

client devices

100a, 100b, and 100c. These client devices 100 can be possessed and / or carried by different users. As will be described later, in the present embodiment, for example, an object generated based on a user behavior recognized using the client device 100b (referred to as a user B behavior) is the

other client devices

100a, 100c and / or Alternatively, it can be displayed in the virtual space on the client device 100b. This object may be an object that displays user B. Similarly, an object generated based on each user's behavior recognized by using the

client devices

100a and 100c (referred to as user A and user C's behavior) is also a virtual space in each of the client devices 100a to 100c. Can be displayed.

Thus, in this embodiment, in each client device 100, an object generated based on information indicating the behavior of each user is arranged, so that in the virtual space regardless of where each user is actually located. Each user's action can be shared.

Furthermore, in the present embodiment, an operation performed by a user regarding behavior sharing using the client device 100, a user behavior recognized by the client device 100, or another user behavior displayed as an object on the client device 100. Based on the above, a reward object (BADGE) is given to the user. More specifically, the reward object (BADGE) is registered in association with each user in the service provided by the system 10, and an image corresponding to the reward object (BADGE) is displayed on the client device 100 as the property of the user. Can be done.

In the illustrated example, a reward object (BADGE) is registered for the user (user A) of the client device 100a. The user A can browse the image corresponding to the reward object (BADGE) on the client device 100a, and the users (users B and C) of the

other client devices

100b and 100c can obtain information on the user A. When referred to, an image corresponding to the reward object (BADGE) registered in association with the user A may be displayed as the property of the user A.

(2. Functional configuration)
FIG. 2 is a block diagram illustrating a schematic functional configuration of a system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. In the following, the functional configurations of the client apparatus 100 and the server 20 will be described with reference to FIG. 2, but the functions described as being realized by the processor below will be described with respect to the client apparatus 100 or the server. It may be realized by any processor of the apparatus 200.

(Client device)
The client device 100 can include an acceleration sensor 101, a behavior recognition unit 103, a behavior information acquisition unit 105, a display control unit 107, a communication module 109, a reward registration unit 111, and a reward history cache unit 113. The action recognition unit 103, the action information acquisition unit 105, the display control unit 107, and the reward registration unit 111 can be realized by a processor such as a CPU.

The acceleration sensor 101 detects the acceleration applied to the client device 100. For example, the motion state of the user carrying the client device 100 can be recognized by the acceleration. In addition to the acceleration sensor 101, the client device 100 may include various sensors such as a gyro sensor, a geomagnetic sensor, an optical sensor, a sound sensor, and an atmospheric pressure sensor. With these sensors, for example, the posture and orientation of the client device 100, the surrounding environment, and the like can be detected. In addition, the client device 100 may include positioning means such as a GPS sensor and a Wi-Fi communication unit for acquiring user position information.

The behavior recognition unit 103 recognizes the behavior of the user of the client device 100 based on the detection result of a sensor such as the acceleration sensor 101. As for the technology of action recognition based on the detection result of the sensor, for example, the technology described in JP 2010-198595 A, JP 2011-81431 A, and the like can be used. Is omitted. By the processing of the behavior recognition unit 103, for example, a behavior such as a user stopping, walking, running, riding a train, or riding a car can be recognized. In addition, the behavior recognition unit 103 performs more advanced behavior such as whether the user is working, at home, or shopping based on the detection result of the acceleration sensor 101 and the like and the position information of the user. May be recognized.

The behavior information acquisition unit 105 acquires behavior information indicating the user's behavior recognized by the behavior recognition unit 103. In addition, the behavior information acquisition unit 105 acquires behavior information indicating the behavior of another user recognized by the other client device 100 via the communication module 109 described later. That is, the behavior information acquisition unit 105 acquires the behavior information of other users in addition to the behavior information of the user of the client device 100. Here, the behavior information of other users can be provided to the client device 100 in accordance with the sharing setting held in the sharing setting holding unit 201 of the server 20 described later.

In other embodiments, the client device 100 may not include the acceleration sensor 101 and the behavior recognition unit 103, and the behavior information acquisition unit 105 may acquire only behavior information indicating the behavior of other users.

Based on the behavior information acquired by the behavior information acquisition unit 105, the display control unit 107 generates a user object indicating a user of the client device 100 or a user (another user) of another client device 100, and the client device It is displayed on 100 displays. As in a display example described later, the display control unit 107 may display a list including user objects, for example, or may display a virtual space in which the user objects are arranged. Further, the display control unit 107 may display a user object representing a user and a user object representing another user, for example, or may display only a user object representing another user. Only one user object representing another user may be displayed, or two or more user objects may be displayed.

The communication module 109 is realized by various communication circuits that execute wired or wireless network communication according to the control of the processor. For example, the communication module 109 transmits behavior information indicating the user's behavior recognized by the behavior recognition unit 103 to the server 20. The behavior information transmitted to the server 20 can be provided to other client devices 100 according to the sharing setting held in the sharing setting holding unit 201. Here, the behavior information transmitted to the server 20 can be held at least temporarily in the server 20. The held behavior information can be provided to other client devices 100 according to the sharing setting. Also, ranking information to be described later can be generated based on the held behavior information. Further, the communication module 109 receives the behavior information of other users provided via the server 20 and provides it to the behavior information acquisition unit 105.

The reward registration unit 111 registers a reward object for the user of the client device 100 based on the user behavior information displayed as the user object by the display control unit 107. The reward object is an object indicating that a reward is given to the user. On the condition that the reward object is registered, a reward image held in a reward image holding unit 207 of the server 20 described later can be displayed on the client device 100. When registering a reward object, the reward registration unit 111 determines whether a predetermined condition is satisfied by an operation input given to the client device 100, a user action information displayed as a user object by the display control unit 107, or the like. Determine whether. Specific examples of conditions will be described later.

The reward history cache unit 113 can be realized by the memory or storage of the client device 100. The reward history cache unit 113 holds a cache of the history of registration of reward objects for users by the reward registration unit 111. The history master data is held in a reward history holding unit 209 of the server 20 described later. For example, when the server 20 starts a service to the client device 100, the history held in the reward history holding unit 209 for the user of the client device 100 can be copied to the reward history cache unit 113. Further, when a reward object is newly registered by the reward registration unit 111, the history held in the reward history holding unit 209 is updated via the communication module 109, and the cache held in the reward history cache unit 113 is updated. Can also be updated.

Here, the reward history cache unit 113 can be used, for example, when the reward registration unit 111 determines whether to register a reward object. For example, when the reward registration unit 111 determines that a predetermined condition is satisfied by an operation input given to the client device 100, a user action information displayed as a user object by the display control unit 107, or the like, It may be determined with reference to the reward history cache unit 113 whether the reward object that can be registered according to the condition has already been registered for the user of the client device 100.

The client device 100 that can include the functional configuration as described above can be various terminal devices carried by the user, such as a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a media player, or a game machine. For example, when the client device 100 does not have the acceleration sensor 101 and the behavior recognition unit 103 and the behavior information acquisition unit 105 acquires only the behavior information indicating the behavior of another user, It may be a stationary terminal device such as a PC (Personal Computer) or a television.

(server)
Still referring to FIG. 2, the server 20 includes a sharing setting holding unit 201, a server API (Application Programming Interface) 203, an http (hypertext transfer protocol) server 205, a reward image holding unit 207, a reward history holding unit 209, and ranking information holding. Part 211 and ranking information update part 213 may be included. The server API 203 and the ranking information update unit 213 can be realized by a processor such as a CPU. In addition, the reward image holding unit 207, the reward history holding unit 209, and the ranking information holding unit 211 can be realized by the memory or storage of the server device 200.

The sharing setting holding unit 201 holds action sharing settings among users of a plurality of client devices 100. The sharing setting can be generated, for example, when a user of one client device 100 registers a user of another client device 100 as a sharing partner of behavior information. For example, when an action sharing setting is generated between the user of the client device 100a (user A) and the user of the client device 100b (user B), the user A can change the user B's display via the display of the client device 100a. The user object generated based on the behavior information can be observed.

Here, the sharing setting may be interactive such that, for example, the user B can observe the user object generated based on the behavior information of the user A via the display of the client device 100b. B may be unidirectional in which the user object of user A cannot be observed. Further, the sharing setting may be generated by, for example, an operation in the service provided by the system 10 as described above, or may be imported from another service. More specifically, for example, the sharing setting may be automatically generated based on a social media friend setting, a group setting, or the like.

The server API 203 is an interface provided for the client device 100 to access each function of the server 20 including the shared setting holding unit 201 via the http server 205. The http server 205 executes communication with the client device 100 in accordance with http. For example, one of the server devices 200 constituting the server 20 may function exclusively as the http server 205, or the function of the http server 205 is provided as one function of the server device 200 that also realizes other functions. May be. Communication using http may be encrypted. Note that the detailed configurations of the server API 203 and the http server 205 are already well known, and a description thereof will be omitted here.

The reward image holding unit 207 holds an image corresponding to the reward object registered by the reward registration unit 111 of the client device 100 (hereinafter also referred to as a reward image). In the present embodiment, the types of reward objects provided in the service provided by the system 10 are determined in advance, and the reward image holding unit 207 holds images respectively corresponding to those reward objects. The reward image holding unit 207 provides reward image data to the client apparatus 100 via the server API 203 and the http server 205 when requested by the client apparatus 100. At this time, with reference to a history held in a reward history holding unit 209 described later, a reward image that can be provided for each user can be selected.

In the reward history holding unit 209, the reward object registration history for the user by the reward registration unit 111 is held in the same manner as the reward history cache unit 113 of the client device 100. As described above, the data held in the reward history holding unit 209 corresponds to the master data of the data held in the reward history cache unit 113. Therefore, for example, when there is no history data in the reward history cache unit 113 (for example, when a new sharing setting is added to the sharing setting holding unit 201), the data held in the reward history holding unit 209 is rewarded. Copied to the history cache unit 113. In addition, when a new reward object is registered by the reward registration unit 111 and the data of the reward history cache unit 113 is updated, data for executing the same update also in the reward history holding unit 209 is stored in the client device. Uploaded from 100 to the server 20.

Ranking information holding unit 211 holds ranking information based on each user's action. The ranking information update unit 213 is held in the ranking information holding unit 211 based on the behavior information of each user provided from the client device 100 via the http server 205 and the server API 203 and temporarily held in the server device 200. Update the ranking information. For example, the ranking information update unit 213 may be automatically activated every predetermined time (for example, one hour) to update the ranking information. The ranking information is ranking information extracted by statistically processing the behavior information of each user. The ranking may be extracted for all users who use the service provided by the system 10 regardless of the sharing setting held in the sharing setting holding unit 201, for example. Alternatively, the ranking may be extracted between users sharing actions with each other or in a group set by the user based on the sharing setting held in the sharing setting holding unit 201. The ranking information held in the ranking information holding unit 211 can be provided to the client device 100 via the server API 203 and the http server 205 when requested by the client device 100.

Here, the ranking information held in the ranking information holding unit 211 and updated by the ranking information update unit 213 can also be a condition for registering a reward object for the user of the client device 100. Accordingly, for example, the ranking information update unit 213 provides the update result of the ranking information to the client device 100 via the server API 203 and the http server 205, and the reward registration unit 111 of the client device 100 determines based on the update result of the ranking information. Reward objects may be registered for each user. For example, the ranking information update unit 213 can provide the ranking information update result to the client device 100 of a user who has won a higher rank in the updated ranking or a user of a predetermined rank (100th, 300th, etc.). . A specific example of ranking will be described later.

(3. Screen display example)
Subsequently, a screen display example according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. In order to facilitate understanding, the screen display example in which the reward object is not implemented is first described with reference to FIGS. 3 to 7, and then the screen in which the reward object is implemented with reference to FIGS. 8 to 13. A display example will be described.
(3-1. List display screen)
FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example of a list display screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 3, a list display screen 1100 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a list including user information 1101, an action status 1103, and a user object 1105, an action information use setting button 1107, and a posting button 1109. And are included.

User information 1101 includes, for example, a thumbnail image, a user name, and a user ID as illustrated. Any one of these may be displayed as user information 1101, and other information may be displayed as user information 1101 in addition to these. The user information 1101 can be displayed based on, for example, user account information registered in the database of the server 20.

The behavior status 1103 represents each user's behavior recognized by the behavior recognition unit 103 of the client device 100 described above as text. As shown by the behavior status 1103 in the illustrated example, in this embodiment, for example, the user's movement such as standing, running, walking, sitting, etc. An operation related to a terminal such as riding in a vehicle such as being in a car, sitting on a vehicle, sitting and looking at the terminal, or leaving the terminal unattended can be recognized as a user action. Note that the actions that can be recognized in the embodiment of the present disclosure are not limited to these examples. For example, various actions that are introduced in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2010-198595 and 2011-81431 are provided. May be possible to recognize.

The user object 1105 represents each user's action recognized by the action recognition unit 103 by its pose (shape) or movement. That is, the user object 1105 is generated based on behavior information indicating the user's behavior, and is displayed on the display unit to represent the user. As illustrated by the illustrated example, the user object 1105 is, for example, a humanoid and takes a user action by taking a pose that corresponds to the user's action (eg, standing, running, etc.). May be expressed. Alternatively, when the user is on a vehicle, the user object 1105 may be displayed in the shape of the vehicle. Also, when the user is leaving the terminal or the user's behavior is not identified (unknown), the user object 1105 is not in the form of a person or a vehicle, but in the form of an unidentified object or the form of a left terminal device. There may be.

The behavior information use setting button 1107 is a button for setting whether or not the user of the client device 100 turns on / off behavior recognition by the behavior recognition unit 103 and whether to disclose the behavior information acquired by the recognition. In the state of the illustrated example, it is “always public”, but “off” (does not use behavior recognition), “private” (uses behavior recognition but includes users who are set to share) There is an option such as not sharing it with anyone. In addition, when publishing action information, for example, “every day from 7:00 to 21:00”, “Monday to Friday 24 hours”, “Saturday and Sunday 24 hours”, and the like, setting of release limited to time zones and days May be possible.

The posting button 1109 is a button for activating a function for the user of the client device 100 to post a message. The message posted by the user is displayed on a post history screen described later.

With the list display screen 1100 as described above, the user of the client device 100 can list the action statuses 1103 and user objects 1105 of many users. On the list display screen 1100, for example, the individual information screen of each user may be displayed by selecting the action status 1103, the user object 1105, or a list row including these.

(3-2. Virtual space display screen)
FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a virtual space display screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 4, the virtual space display screen 1200 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a user object 1201, user information 1203, a vehicle object 1205, and a virtual space 1207. Further, on the virtual space display screen 1200, an action information use setting button 1107 and a posting button 1109 are also displayed.

Note that the virtual space display screen 1200 shown in FIG. 4 is displayed based on the behavior information of each user at a different time from the list display screen 1100 shown in FIG. Therefore, the action state of each user in the example shown in FIG. 3 does not necessarily match the action state of each user shown in FIG.

The user object 1201 is an object similar to that displayed on the list display screen 1100. That is, the user object 1201 is generated based on behavior information indicating the behavior of each user, and is displayed on the display unit to represent the user. On the virtual space display screen 1200, each user's action is mainly displayed by the user object 1201. Here, each user object 1201 can be arranged at a position in the virtual space 1207 that matches its pose (shape) or movement. For example, the sitting user object 1201 is arranged near the bench, and the standing user object 1201 is arranged near the road. In addition, the user object 1201 that is in the shape of various vehicles on the list display screen 1100 may be a humanoid and placed in a vehicle object described later. Further, the user object 1201 in the form of an unidentified object or a neglected terminal may be displayed floating in the sky.

User information 1203 includes a user ID as shown in the figure, for example. In addition to this, or instead of this, a user name, a thumbnail image, or the like may be displayed as the user information. However, on the virtual space display screen 1200 in the present embodiment, display of the virtual space 1207 and other user objects 1201 is performed. Only the user ID is displayed as the user information 1203 so as not to get in the way.

The vehicle object 1205 is arranged in the virtual space 1207 and accommodates a user object 1201 of a user indicated by the action information to be on the vehicle. In the illustrated example, a train vehicle object 1205 and a vehicle vehicle object 1205 are arranged in a virtual space 1207. In addition, vehicle objects 1205 such as buses, bicycles, airplanes, and elevators may be displayed. The vehicle object 1205 can be arranged at a position corresponding to each vehicle in the virtual space 1207. For example, a vehicle object 1205 such as a bus, a car, or a bicycle may be arranged on a road, a train vehicle object 1205 may be arranged on a track, and an elevator vehicle object 1205 may be arranged in a building.

The virtual space 1207 is a space in which the user object 1201 and the vehicle object 1205 are arranged. For example, the virtual space 1207 may be configured based on a theme selected by the user of the client device 100 from among several themes prepared in advance. Further, the virtual space 1207 may include elements for arranging various user objects 1201 having various poses (shapes) and movements and various vehicle objects 1205, for example. For example, in the illustrated example, the virtual space 1207 includes elements such as a bench on which a sitting user object 1201 is arranged and a road on which a vehicle object 1205 is arranged.

As shown in the figure, the virtual space display screen 1200 can also display a behavior information use setting button 1107 and a posting button 1109 similar to the list display screen 1100 described above. Further, although not shown, the virtual space display screen 1200 acquires a snapshot of the virtual space 1207 including the user object 1201, the user information 1203, and the vehicle object 1205, and the user posts a message as an attached image. Another posting button may be displayed.

Through the virtual space display screen 1200 as described above, the user of the client device 100 can arrange and observe the user object 1201 of each user in the same virtual space 1207, For example, you can feel as if you are living in the same town. On the virtual space display screen 1200, for example, the individual information screen of each user may be displayed by selecting the user object 1201 or the user information 1203.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for describing the relationship between the list display screen and the virtual space display screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 5, in this embodiment, the user moves the user object 1105 displayed on the list display screen 1100 to the virtual space display screen 1200 by a so-called drag and drop operation, thereby displaying the virtual space. The user object 1201 of the user can be added to the screen 1200. In the figure, a user object 1150 being dragged is displayed. As described above, while dragging from the list display screen 1100 to the virtual space display screen 1200, the user object 1150 may be displayed in a pose (shape) or movement different from the user object 1105 or the user object 1201.

As illustrated by the illustrated example, in the present embodiment, only some of the users whose behavior status 1103 and user object 1105 are displayed in the list display 1100 are displayed on the virtual space display screen 1200. Also displayed as a user object 1201. For example, an upper limit may be set for the number of user objects 1201 that can be added to the virtual space display screen 1200 so that the user objects 1201 do not interfere with each other on the virtual space display screen 1200 or the virtual space 1207 becomes difficult to see. In another embodiment, all users whose behavior status 1103 and user object 1105 are displayed in the list display 1100 may be displayed as the user object 1201 on the virtual space display screen 1200.

Referring to FIG. 6, the posting history screen 1300 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes user information 1301, an action status 1303, a user object 1305, a posted message 1307, an action icon 1309, a summary button 1311, and a posting history button. 1313 is included.

The posting history screen 1300 is one of the individual information screens in the present embodiment. The posting history screen 1300 can be displayed, for example, by selecting an action status 1103 or a user object 1105 on the list display screen 1100 or a list row including these. The posting history screen 1300 may be displayed by selecting the user object 1201 or the user information 1203 on the virtual space display screen 1200.

User information 1301 may be the same as the user information 1101 on the list display screen 1100 described above with reference to FIG. However, since the posting history screen 1300 is an individual information screen for each user, the user information 1301 is displayed for one user.

The behavior status 1303 and the user object 1305 may be the same as the behavior status 1103 and the user object 1105 on the list display screen 1100. However, since the posting history screen 1300 is an individual information screen for each user, the action status 1303 and the user object 1305 are displayed for one user.

The posted message 1307 is a message posted in the past by the user who is the display target of the posting history screen 1300. The posted messages 1307 are arranged in time series, for example, and are sequentially displayed by the user scrolling the display.

The behavior icon 1309 is an icon indicating the user's behavior recognized at the time closest to the time when the posted message 1307 is posted. The action icon 1309 may be, for example, the same as the user object 1105 that would have been displayed when the posted message 1307 was posted, or the action of the user confirmed by further processing thereafter. It may be an icon shown. In this case, the action icon 1309 may indicate an action different from the user object 1105 when the posted message 1307 is posted.

The summary button 1311 is a button for switching the display to an action summary screen 1400 described later. In this embodiment, a posting history screen 1300 and an action summary screen 1400 are displayed as individual user information screens. These screens can be switched between each other using the summary button 1311 and the posting history button 1313. . Therefore, the posting history screen 1300 is displayed with the posting history button 1313 selected.

By the posting history screen 1300 as described above, the user of the client device 100 can refer to the behavior of each user together with the message posted by the user.

FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of an action summary screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 7, the action summary screen 1400 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a posting history of user information 1301, action status 1303, user object 1305, action icon 1309, summary button 1311, and posting history button 1313. In addition to the same elements as the screen 1300, a ranking 1401, a summary graph 1403, and an exercise graph 1405 are displayed.

The action summary screen 1400 is an individual information screen different from the posting history screen 1300 in the present embodiment. Similar to the posting history screen 1300, the action summary screen 1400 can also be displayed by selecting, for example, the action status 1103, the user object 1105, or a list row including these on the list display screen 1100. The action summary screen 1400 may be displayed by selecting the user object 1201 or the user information 1203 on the virtual space display screen 1200. As described above, the posting history screen 1300 and the action summary screen 1400 can be switched and displayed with each other using the summary button 1311 and the posting history button 1313.

The ranking 1401 is displayed based on the ranking information held in the ranking information holding unit 211 of the server 20, for example. In the ranking, for example, the user behavior information is statistically processed, such as “steps in 24 hours”, “walking time in 24 hours”, and “training time in 24 hours” in the illustrated example. This may include items extracted by The update interval of the ranking 1401 can be set freely. The update interval does not necessarily have to be related to the sample width of the ranking item (24 hours in the above example). For example, in the above example, the ranking 1401 may be updated in units of one day (24 hours) or may be updated in units of one hour. For example, when the ranking 1401 is updated at 10:00, “24 hours” may mean from 10:00 on the previous day to 10:00 on the current day.

The summary graph 1403 is a graph summarizing the user's daily actions. In the illustrated example, the types of user actions recognized on a certain day (March 4, 2013 in the illustrated example) are displayed as a graph. The exercise graph 1405 is a graph showing the state of exercise estimated from the daily action information of the user. Although it is cut off in the middle of the figure, for example, a graph of the time the user walks or runs for every hour is displayed as an exercise graph 1405. As described above, the information that collectively represents the user's behavior at a predetermined time interval is not limited to the summary graph 1403 and the exercise graph 1405 in the illustrated example, and may be any other graph type. Good. Also, the time interval for collecting user actions is not limited to one day, and may be longer than one week or one month, or shorter than 12 hours or 6 hours.

The behavior icon 1309 is an icon indicating the user's behavior similar to the one displayed on the posting history screen 1300. However, the action summary screen 1400 recognizes at the time (March 4, 2013 in the illustrated example) that is the target of information that collectively represents the user's actions such as the summary graph 1403 and the exercise graph 1405. An icon indicating the user's action may be displayed as the action icon 1309.

With the action summary screen 1400 as described above, the user of the client device 100 can refer to information that collectively represents each user's action at a predetermined time.

(3-3. Reward acquisition notification screen)
FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of a reward acquisition notification screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 8, a reward acquisition notification screen 1500 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a reward title 1501, a reward image 1503, a reward description 1505, an application start button 1507, and an OK button 1509.

The reward acquisition notification screen 1500 is displayed on the display of the client device 100 when a reward object is registered for the user of the client device 100. For example, the reward acquisition notification screen may be displayed as a pop-up window as in the illustrated example. Although the background is the list display screen 1100 in the figure, it may be another screen. In addition, since the client device 100 can execute processing of the action recognition unit 103 and the reward registration unit 111 in the background, an application screen or a desktop screen unrelated to the present embodiment is used as a background. A reward acquisition notification screen may be displayed.

The reward title 1501 displays the title of the reward object newly registered for the user. The reward title 1501 does not necessarily match the actual ID of the reward object. A specific example of the reward title 1501 will be described later.

The reward image 1503 is an image (reward image) corresponding to a reward object newly registered for the user. As described above, the reward image is held in the reward image holding unit 207 of the server 20 and can be provided to the client device 100 in response to a request from the reward registration unit 111 that newly registers a reward object.

The reward description 1505 displays a description of the reward object newly registered for the user. For example, in the case of the reward object 1501 with the reward title 1501 “behavior recognition turned on” as illustrated, the reward explanation 1505 is a text that advises how to use the result of action recognition, the existence of an individual information screen, and the like. Can be displayed as a reward description 1505.

The application start button 1507 is a button for starting an application related to the service provided in the present embodiment (an application for displaying a screen below the list display screen 1100 described above). In the illustrated example, this application is already activated and the list display screen 1100 is displayed, but the reward object is registered by the processing of the action recognition unit 103 and the reward registration unit 111 executed in the background as described above. If an application start button 1507 is selected, a new application is started, and a reward history screen, which will be described later, can be referred to. When the OK button 1509 is selected, the reward acquisition notification screen 1500 is closed as it is.

(3-4. Reward list screen)
FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating an example of a reward list screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 9, the reward list screen 1600 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a reward title 1601, a reward image 1603, a reward description 1605, and a reward acquisition date 1607.

The reward list screen 1600 can be displayed, for example, by selecting an item such as “reward list” from a function menu (not shown) of an application related to a service provided in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the reward list screen 1600 displays a list of all reward objects registered for the user. In the reward list screen 1600, for example, a request for displaying a reward list is transmitted from the display control unit 107 of the client device 100 to the server 20, and in response to this request, the reward of the user held in the reward history holding unit 209 is received. The reward image held in the reward image holding unit 207 can be displayed by being selectively provided based on the history.

The reward title 1601 displays the title of each reward object. The title displayed as the reward title 1601 may be the same as the title displayed as the reward title 1501 of the reward acquisition notification screen 1500, for example.

The reward image 1603 is an image (reward image) corresponding to each reward object. The image displayed as the reward image 1603 may be the same as the image displayed as the reward image 1503 on the reward acquisition notification screen 1500, for example. However, as will be described later, the reward image may include a “NEW” icon displayed on a newly acquired image or an icon indicating the number of acquired items that can be acquired. The presence / absence of the reward image may be different from the reward image displayed on the reward acquisition notification screen 1500 and the reward image displayed on the reward list screen 1600.

A reward description 1605 displays a description of each reward object. The text displayed as the reward explanation 1605 may be the same as the text displayed as the reward explanation 1505 of the reward acquisition notification screen 1500, for example.

The reward acquisition date 1607 displays the date on which each reward object was registered. In the case of a plurality of reward objects that can be acquired, the date when the reward object was last registered (that is, the latest acquisition date) may be displayed as the reward acquisition date 1607.

(3-4. Reward display on individual information screen)
FIG. 10 is a diagram illustrating an example in a case where the action summary screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a reward display. Referring to FIG. 10, the action summary screen 1700 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a reward image in addition to the display elements similar to those displayed on the action summary screen 1400 described with reference to FIG. A list 1701 is displayed. The reward image list 1701 includes an acquired reward image 1703 and an unacquired reward image 1705.

In the present embodiment, when a reward object is implemented, it is possible to refer to the state of the reward object acquired by each user on an individual information screen such as the action summary screen 1700, for example. Although not shown, the status of the reward object may be referred to on the posting history screen 1300 as well.

The reward image list 1701 is displayed between the ranking 1401 and the summary graph 1403, for example. In the reward image list 1701, acquired reward images 1703 and unacquired reward images 1705 are arranged in the horizontal direction of the screen, for example. More specifically, in the reward image list 1701, regardless of whether or not the target user has acquired, the reward images prepared in the service are displayed in a predetermined order, and what the user has acquired is acquired. As a completed reward image 1703, an unacquired reward image 1705 is displayed as an unacquired reward image.

By such display, the user who refers to the reward image list 1701 can know how many rewards the user has acquired in addition to the information on which rewards the user has acquired. Such a display can be useful not only for other users, but also for the user who is the display target, because the degree of achievement of the reward can be known. In another embodiment, only the acquired reward image 1703 is displayed as the reward image list 1701, and the unacquired reward image 1705 may not be displayed.

The acquired reward image 1703 may be the same as the image displayed as the reward image 1503 of the reward acquisition notification screen 1500 or the reward image 1603 of the reward list screen 1600, for example. However, in the present embodiment, since the size of the acquired reward image 1703 is small, an image simplified compared to each of the above-described reward images can be displayed as the acquired reward image 1703.

The unacquired reward image 1705 is a different image from specific images such as the reward image 1503 on the reward acquisition notification screen 1500 and the reward image 1603 on the reward list screen 1600. Since the reward object displayed as the unacquired reward image 1705 has not yet been registered for the user, the unacquired reward image 1705 can be displayed for the purpose of displaying only the presence without revealing details. Accordingly, the unacquired reward image 1705 may be an image showing only the outer shape of the reward image, for example, as in the illustrated example.

FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating an example of an acquired reward detail screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 11, the acquired reward detail screen 1800 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a reward title 1801, a reward image 1803, a reward description 1805, and a reward acquisition date 1807.

The acquired reward details screen 1800 is displayed on the display of the client device 100 when, for example, the acquired reward image 1703 included in the reward image list 1701 is selected on the action summary screen 1700 described above. For example, the acquired reward detail screen 1800 may be displayed as a pop-up window as in the illustrated example.

The reward title 1801, the reward image 1803, the reward description 1805, and the reward acquisition date 1807 displayed on the acquired reward details screen 1800 are, for example, the reward title 1601, the reward image 1603 displayed on the reward list screen 1600, and the like. Since it may be the same as the reward explanation 1605 and the reward acquisition date 1607, detailed explanation is omitted.

FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of an unacquired reward detail screen according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 12, the unacquired reward detail screen 1900 displayed on the display of the client device 100 includes a reward title 1901 and a reward image 1903.

The unacquired reward detail screen 1900 is displayed on the display of the client device 100 when, for example, the unacquired reward image 1705 included in the reward image list 1701 is selected on the action summary screen 1700 described above. For example, the unacquired reward details screen 1900 may be displayed as a pop-up window as in the illustrated example.

As described above, the unacquired reward image 1705 is displayed for the purpose of displaying only the existence without revealing the details of the reward object. Accordingly, similarly on the unacquired reward details screen 1900, a text that does not clarify the content such as “unacquired” is displayed as the reward title 1901, and the reward image 1903 is the reward image similar to the unacquired reward image 1705. An image showing only the outline of the image can be displayed.

(3-5. Award image)
FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating a specific example of a reward image according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 13, the reward image 2000 includes a symbol 2001, a number icon 2003, and a NEW icon 2005.

The symbol 2001 corresponds to the content of the reward object. For example, in the case of a reward object “walking for the first time (recognizing the action“ walking ”for the first time”), a walking human figure 2001 can be adopted. In the case of a reward object corresponding to entering the ranking, as in the example shown in the figure, a pattern 2001 in which a human figure of a pose related to a ranking item (for example, the number of steps) is arranged in a crown-shaped pedestal. Can be adopted.

The number-of-times icon 2003 displays the number of acquisitions for a plurality of reward objects that can be acquired. In the case of a reward object that is not acquired more than once, the number-of-times icon 2003 may not be displayed. In the case of a reward object that can be acquired a plurality of times, the number icon 2003 may be displayed after the number of times acquired is two times, or the number icon 2003 is displayed from the number of times acquired. , It may be displayed that multiple acquisitions are possible.

The NEW icon 2005 is displayed for the reward object newly registered for the user. The NEW icon 2005 may be displayed only when, for example, the reward image 2000 corresponding to the reward object is displayed for the first time on the reward acquisition notification screen 1500 or the like, and the acquired reward object is displayed on the reward list screen 1600 or the action. It may be displayed until it is confirmed on the summary screen 1700, or may be displayed over a predetermined period after acquisition.

(4. Examples of rewards)
Subsequently, a specific example of the reward object in the present embodiment described above will be further described.

(4-1. Overview)
Table 1 is a diagram showing an overview of rewards that can be set in the present embodiment. Awards can be set in the following six systems, for example.

Hereinafter, each system will be described in more detail.

(4-2. First action)
The reward of the “first action” system can be registered when a predetermined type of action is executed for the first time, for example, as a result of action recognition by the action recognition unit 103 of the client device 100. A more specific example is shown below. In the example below, “determined” means that the action is confirmed as a result of analyzing a plurality of data such as sensor data and position information, and “detected” means sensor data This means that it has been detected that the action has been executed. The reward for the “first action” system is basically registered only once.

(4-3. First operation)
The reward for the “first operation” system can be registered when any setting is changed on the service, for example, by an operation via an operation unit (such as a touch panel) of the client device 100. When posting is a condition, it is not necessary for the posting to actually reach the server. That is, even if the posting does not reach the server due to communication conditions or the like, the reward can be registered if the posting operation is executed in the client device 100. A more specific example is shown below. The reward for the “first operation” system is basically registered only once.

(4-4. Action for a predetermined time)
For example, as a result of action recognition by the action recognition unit 103 of the client apparatus 100, a reward of the system of “action for a predetermined time” can be registered when a predetermined type of action is continuously executed for a predetermined time or more. A more specific example is shown below. It should be noted that the reward for the “first action” system may be registered multiple times. In this case, for example, if the same reward is already registered on the same day so that three rewards “walked 1 hour a day” are not registered when walking for 3 hours a day, registration of further rewards It may be suppressed. In this case, when walking for 3 hours a day, for example, a reward “walked 1 hour a day” and a reward “walked 3 hours a day” can be registered one by one.

(4-5. Behavior of other users)
For example, in the virtual space display screen 1200 displayed on the display by the display control unit 107 of the client apparatus 100, the other user's action indicated by the displayed user object is the reward of the “other user's action” system. It can be displayed when a predetermined condition is satisfied. That is, in this case, a second user (user of the client device 100) different from the first user (user providing the behavior information) is displayed via the virtual space display screen 1200 displayed on the display of the client device 100. It can also be said that the reward object is registered based on the behavior information of the first user at the time when the user object 1201 of the first user is observed. A more specific example is shown below. It should be noted that the reward of the “other user behavior” system may be registered a plurality of times.

Here, in the above example, when it is a condition that a single user object takes a predetermined action on the virtual space display screen 1200, this user object is the user of the client device 100 (observes the virtual space display screen 1200). The user object may be limited to a user object different from that of the user. In this case, since the behavior of other users that cannot be controlled by the user is a condition, the difficulty level of the reward increases. Alternatively, the user object of the user of the client device 100 may be allowed as a user object that is a condition. In this case, a reward can be given for displaying the user's own behavior as a user object on the virtual space display screen 1200, and the user performs a desired action (pause, ride on a vehicle, movement, etc.) on the user object. It can be recommended to take various actions to make it happen.

On the other hand, in the above example, when it is a condition that a plurality of user objects simultaneously take a predetermined action on the virtual space display screen 1200, the user of the client device 100 is included in the plurality of user objects. Also good. Furthermore, it may be a condition that a user other than the user of the client device 100 is located away from the user of the client device 100. Here, a second user (user of the client device 100) different from the first user (user who provides the behavior information) is displayed via the virtual space display screen 1200 displayed on the display of the client device 100. It can be said that the reward object is registered based on the behavior information of the first user “and the second user in a place away from the first user” at the time when the user object 1201 of one user is observed. Also in this case, since the behavior of other users who cannot be controlled by the user is a condition, the difficulty level of the reward increases. Alternatively, when a plurality of user objects including a user of the client device 100 is a condition, it may be allowed that these users are in the same place. In this case, for example, all the friends get on the elevator and all the rewards are obtained, and the pleasure of acquiring the rewards can be obtained in cooperation with other users.

Alternatively, even when a plurality of user objects is a condition, each user object is a user of the client device 100 (a user observing the virtual space display screen 1200), as in the case where a single user object is a condition. May be limited to user objects of different users.

In addition to the above example, various variations are possible for the reward of the “other user behavior” system, and some of them will be described below.

For example, as in the above example, a plurality of users execute a predetermined action at the same time (three people ride on the same vehicle at the same time), or a plurality of users execute a predetermined type of action different from each other at the same time In addition to (such as riding different vehicles at the same time), it may be a condition that each user sequentially executes a predetermined action. For example, a plurality of users sequentially execute a predetermined action (user A first rides on the same vehicle, then user B rides, etc.), or a plurality of users sequentially execute predetermined kinds of actions different from each other. (First, user A and then user B are on different vehicles, etc.).

Further, it may be a condition that a plurality of users do not execute a predetermined action. For example, the time during which the user of the client device 100 is displaying the virtual space display screen 1200 (for example, 10 minutes or more because it is meaningless if it is short) is set as the first time, and a plurality of user objects are included in the first time However, none of them may perform a predetermined action (for example, do not get on a bus).

In addition, as described above, a plurality of users simultaneously execute a predetermined action (may be different predetermined actions), or a plurality of users may sequentially execute a predetermined action (may be different predetermined actions). Is a condition, information other than action information such as position information may be used as a condition for some or all of a plurality of users. For example, the condition may be that user A gets on a bus, user C gets on a train, and user B waits in Hokkaido.

As a similar example, environmental information and traffic conditions may be included in the conditions. For example, in the case where the client device 100 includes a humidity sensor, it may be a condition that a plurality of users walk in a predetermined or higher humidity simultaneously (or sequentially). When weather environment information is available, it may be a condition that a plurality of users ride bicycles in the rain simultaneously (or sequentially). Moreover, when the client apparatus 100 can measure a user's heart rate, it may be a condition that a plurality of users ride a bicycle at the same time (or sequentially) and have reached a heart rate equal to or higher than a predetermined value. In addition, when traffic information is available, a reward object may be registered for a user who has arrived at a workplace or the like by a predetermined time when a failure occurs in a transportation system commonly used by a plurality of users. . Also, if the user's commute time zone can be estimated, a reward object is registered for a user who has moved to the commute time without getting in the car, even though he / she normally uses the car for commuting. May be.

Further, the predetermined action executed by a plurality of users is not necessarily a single action, and a sequence including a plurality of actions may be treated as the predetermined action. For example, a plurality of users see the same advertisement at the same time (or sequentially) and then get on the train, or a plurality of users see the same advertisement at the same time (or sequentially) and then go to the same place (using location information) It may be a condition to do.

Other than that, for example, as an example in which the position information and the action information are combined as a condition, it may be a condition that a plurality of users get on different vehicles to go to the same place. In addition, a plurality of users may not be simply on the elevator, but a plurality of users may be on the elevator in the same building. In addition, the same number of users who go to a specific spot where the number is limited (for example, three users go to each of the three views of Japan) and sit at the same time (or sequentially), or the same behavior such as squatting It may be a condition to execute. Further, it may be a condition that predetermined information is executed (for example, standing up) in order from the user on the lower floor in the same building using altitude information acquired by the atmospheric pressure sensor. Moreover, when a user's eyes | visual_axis can be detected using a wearable terminal etc., it is good also as conditions on the condition that several users visually recognize the same thing in a respectively different place.

(4-6. Increase in shared users)
For example, in the sharing setting holding unit 201 of the server 20, the number of users whose behavior information sharing settings have been generated with the user of the client device 100 reaches a predetermined number. It can be registered when a list display screen 1100 including the user is displayed. A more specific example is shown below. Note that the reward of the “increase of shared users” system is basically registered only once.

(4-7. Rank in)
For example, in the ranking information holding unit 211 of the server 20, the reward of the “ranked in” system can be registered when a ranking including the users of the client device 100 in a predetermined order is generated. A more specific example is shown below. It should be noted that a reward for a “ranked in” line may be registered multiple times.

The reward may be a virtual object that can be viewed as a reward image on an application, for example, as in the above example, but in other embodiments, an actual value such as a point or a discount coupon, The user may be given the right to enter a specific place. Further, although the recommended behavior is exemplified as the above reward condition, conversely, a negative reward may be set with a condition that is not recommended. In this case, points may be confiscated, or the right to enter a virtual or real place or the right to use a service may be suspended.
